Swiss Army Knife tool that is.
Taken from
here, the source on SAKs, as described by Dennis Piretra, Marketing Director for Wenger North America:
"Thought you'd want to see this. We have one here in NY and have a few more
in-bound from Delemont. It weighs 2lb 11oz and measures 8 3/4" wide. Total
implements: 70 (I think). Do you think we should make a pouch for it?"

I'd need some REALLY big pockets to carry that
H2, Corvette, Ferrari, Unamog, etc.

Well, it'd be a great conversation piece.
And think about the gag potential: "Could I borrow your knife?" "Sure, here it is."

It would take you ages to get the knife out :D
Do you think you could use it? :confused:

Getting it out would be part of the fun. It shall be done with fluerish, pizzazz.
Actually using the tools is near impossible, adding to the affect.
It would be a lidicrous proposition, add to the "knife-nut" persona.

My only question is how the heck do you use that thing its to big to even hold?
No jokes please. I know its a great set up but this is a family forum people.

Then a nice pedicure, a manacure, a little haircut, maybee tweeze a rogue hair, then tightning that loose nut on the hammock, etc...

You could just drop the **** thing on the neck of the bottle and open it that way. Come to think of it, this is a great SD tool; just throw it at your attacker and render them unconscious. :D

I always thought that the "worlds largest tool" was Al Gore.
